Setting the correct PATH for Eclipse

Eclipse doesn’t consult the JAVA_HOME variable

You should specify where Eclipse should find your JDK in the file eclipse.ini. Specifically, the following parameter (note that it is 2 separate lines in the ini file):

-vm
C:\Java\JDK\1.8\bin\javaw.exe

or wherever your javaw.exe happens to be.

Note: The format of the ini file is very particular; make sure to consult https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini to ensure you get it exactly right.
